The last point is good though - less electronics. If there were less electronics the semiconductor shortage would not have hammered the industry as hard.
It would remove vulnerability in the production chain.
I watched the launch of the new Defender and the engineer mentioned with pride it had more than 80 computers in it and I thought "Well, they are not serious about winning the bush reliability test in Australia, then."
Check the switchgear in the Ineos Grenadier in contrast - that will last and perform it's function when most new cars will be scrap. And you can re-wire it yourself in the field. That's the future.
